Ask A Gettysburg Guide #51- Civil War Medicine with Rick Schroeder and Fran Feyock

WARNING: If you can't handle frank discussion of life, medicine, anatomy, human interactions and excrement, you might want to skip this episode. For years members of our audience who are in the medical field have been asking to do an episode about Civil War Medicine.  We finally had the stars align and we welcome LBGs Rick Schroeder and Fran Feyock to the show for their first appearance. Both worked in the medical field as a surgeon and a nurse and have dedicated a lot of their guiding to programs about how the wounded were treated.  We wanted to get into the nitty-gritty, as much as possible, to talk about, not only the treatments, but also how different diseases and traumas affect the body. As always, our Patrons provided us with solid questions to ask.  Support the Show by: Booking a tour with an LBG from the show!
